Which of the following best describes Mendel's idea of segregation? A. Each parent may pass on one or two factors for each trait
to its offspring. B. Male offspring receive chromosomes only from the male parent. C. Female offspring receive chromosomes only from the male parent. D. Each parent passes on only one factor for each trait to its offspring.
The correct option will be option D (Each parent passes on only one factor for each trait to its offspring).
Explanation:
Gregor mendel worked on the pea plants and discoveredthe "fundamental laws of inheritance".
The law of Segregation states that inherited trait occur in two genetic alleles copies which randomly separates during gamete formation with each gamete receives only one genetic allele which reunite during fertilization. Therefore, offspring inherit one genetic allele from each parent. For example:
P(t) = 2500(0.86) Find the initial population size. Does the function represent growth or decay? growth decay By what percent does the population size change each hour? 1%
